Sunday was The NRS's Maiden Voyage to see how I want to set it up for T-3 and get a good feel for the bike with a full camelback.
Plan was to get 6 hrs + and stay in my aerobic base zone for as long as I could, but with the winds kicking up to 30 mph gust I knew I couldn't stay there for long.I did stay pretty close for the first 60 miles then I had no choice but to go south towards Trivoli and straight into the wind.
Did I go to far south ? Those cows have horns ! Like Texas steer !
I had around 35 miles to get home and it would take me almost 3 hours to get there,I didn't want to go anaerobic so I was going slow and steady.I had a purpose here and I wanted to see how my legs would feel on some climbs when I got close to home.
Some more fans waving me on !
I can only wish the little gravel I was on would be like this at T-3 ! Hard packed !
I was finally getting close to home and I hit the climbs with some rollers and the legs felt good and strong,this is going to be the key and part of my plan for T-3 I don't care what others do or how fast they go ! I need to stay out of my anaerobic zone for as long as I can.
Hammer gel and Perpetuem was my main fuel for todays ride !
B-day din-din was great ! Time for some peach cobbler ! Thanks Honey !
Today was a 1-1/4 hr recovery ride just to spin the legs out ! Off tomorrow !
See Ya !
